The term RENAISSANCE Rascal is a combination of two words, 'RENAISSANCE' and 'VARLET'. The word 'RENAISSANCE' refers to the period of European history from the 14th to the 17th century, characterized by a revival of art, literature, and learning. The word 'VARLET' is an archaic term for a young man or page, often employed as a servant in a noble household. Therefore, a RENAISSANCE Rascal can be defined as a young man who served in a noble household during the RENAISSANCE period.
